Description Remi Collet 2017-07-12 09:25:19 EDT

It was working a few time ago...

Trying to bootstrap a MySQL server during a package build, to run test suite, I run (so under an unprivileged account)

%{_libexecdir}/mysqld --datadir=$PWD/data --initialize

This fail without any explanation (works when run as root)

Based on the MySQL bug report, this issue should be fixed in 5.7.20 version.
